3. A piano is my favorite music maker

Saxophone is right up there with it.
This old lady, even with the knarled fingers, can still tickle the ivory I must say.
thank you for this, I don't know about anyone else but I'm tearing up a tad here. I'd like to know her story

7. Would love to know the back story on this.

Is she homeless and someone who cares befriended her, found out she was once a concert pianist and arrange for her to perform?

Or is she again a former concert pianist who's days are dwindling and she just wanted to perform one more time?

Questions, questions, questions.

Thanks for posting.

January 6, 2010
SOME buskers juggle, some play bongos, others pluck electric lutes. Natalie plays Rachmaninov, Chopin and Mendelssohn on keyboard like a concert pianist.
